New Jersey's finest comprehensive
program for the diagnosis, evaluation and treatment
of all heart valve disorders |
Our experienced high-volume Valve Center performs more cardiac
valve procedures annually than any other center in New Jersey.
This interdisciplinary program combines the expertise of
cardiologists, cardiothoracic surgeons and cardiac imaging
specialists who work in concert to precisely identify the
pathology and provide the most appropriate and least invasive
treatment.
Depending on the specific needs of the patient, the entire
spectrum of valve options is available and may be combined
with other procedures such as CABG, surgical ventricular
reconstruction, aortic dissection and aneurysm repair. The
Valve Center is increasingly turning to valve repair versus
replacement due to the improved long-term outcomes and avoidance
of anticoagulants. Patients referred to the Valve Center
will be part of the Center’s growing database that
tracks patient outcomes indefinitely. The data provides the
team with important information in determining which treatment
approach offers the best long-term outcomes.
The Barnabas Health Heart Centers are the only program in
the region to offer this level of collaborative care.
